This application is meant to aid rural grocers by optimizing their distribution networks. It takes in information about stores or other distribution points of interest and will calculate the best way to load trucks, the order to distribute to stores in, etc. The application gives the user control to manipulate nodes (a store or distribution center), trucks, demand, and more. To accomplish the routing portion of the calculations, the application utilizes ArcGIS Online, a service that can find the best routes between nodes on a map. An ArcGIS Online subscription is required to fully utilize this application.
